I think I need to get a bio-hazard suit… or perhaps a new Mac! 😉
So true…

Prayer of Mothers
Father in heaven, grant me the grace to appreciate the dignity which you have conferred on me. Let me realize that not even the Angels have been blessed with such a privilege—to share in your creative miracle and bring new Saints to heaven. Make me a good mother to all my children after the example of Mary, the Mother of your Son. Through the intercession of Jesus and Mary I ask your continued blessings on my family. Let us all be dedicated to your service on earth and attain the eternal happiness of your kingdom in heaven. Amen.
Our Family
A Little About Me
Hi! I'm Jessica, a Roman Catholic wife and home educating mother to our nine children. I was home educated myself, along with my eleven younger siblings. I have a special devotion to St. Therese, through whom I have been given much help and many blessings--the beautiful "Shower of Roses" that she has sent my way! Here I will record a few of the blessings I treasure. Please remember that what you see here is just a little glimpse at our lives, so please say a prayer for us, as we continue to strive for holiness.

So untrue, actually. Sure, there are lots of "exploits" discovered and invented for Windows on a daily basis, but that has no correlation to actual infection rates. I've run WindowsXP and Vista without virus protection for years and I have no problems… then again, I don't download or install things if I don't know what it is or what it will do. Sometimes that means telling a friend "No, I won't click on your 'vacation-pictures.exe' email attachment" but so be it. Plenty of exploits are available for the Mac and they work exactly the same as on Windows: you convince the user grant permission to a malicious program to do what it wants. Windows just generally make this activity easier than on a Mac, but then Windows is generally easier to use than a Mac anyway… it's both a blessing and a curse (depends on the program in question).
Thanks for sharing your opinion…
I am sure everyone has different views on which computer system is best. Personally, having used both PC's and Mac's, I prefer Mac's. I also happen to think their commercials are funny, however accurate or inaccurate they are, and in this case (having just lost quite a bit of data due to a virus — even though I too am very careful on what I open/download AND had a great anti-virus program which was up to date) I can particularly relate. =)
